For example, in the top column in the horizontal direction, “name”, “attendance”, “safety belt”, “qualification 1”, “tool 1” are displayed. In the leftmost column in the vertical direction, for example, the names of the workers “name 1” to “name 6” are registered in advance, and if the number of names does not fit on one page, the scroll bar Scroll up and down by dragging to the top or bottom of 40 or by clicking the scroll keys 41 and 42. Also, if the horizontal qualification or tool column still does not fit on one page, it can be scrolled to the left or right by dragging the scroll bar 50 to the left or right, or clicking the scroll keys 51 and 52. . Thereby, even when there are a large number of work confirmations and workers, the safety confirmation can be easily performed, and the number can be arbitrarily increased.

The worker M carrying the tag 1 answers the question by the field supervisor B as the manager using the “Yes” switch 13 or the “No” switch 14 provided on the tag 1. When the response result signal is transmitted from the antenna 11 by radio, the antenna 21 of the radio communication apparatus 2 receives the signal, and transmits a radio signal indicating that the signal has been correctly received from the antenna 21. The signal is received by the antenna 11 and the indicator 12 is turned on, so that the worker M can confirm that the result of the reply has arrived at the on-site supervisor B of the manager.
In addition, since the control device 3 is connected to the wireless communication device 2, it is possible to store and calculate necessary information, display data of the wireless communication device, and exchange signals with the wireless communication device.

Next, the operation of the safety confirmation system of the present invention will be described.
The field supervisor B as the manager gathers all the workers, and first presses the “attendance” key to confirm attendance. When the attending worker M presses the “Yes” switch 13 on the tag 1 he / she carries, the signal is communicated to the wireless communication device 2 via wireless communication. The wireless communication device 2 transmits a received signal to the tag for which the “Yes” switch 13 is pressed for confirmation of the received result, and the indicator 12 is lit, so that the operator M switches the “Yes” switch. It is possible to know that the result of pressing 13 has been communicated to the field supervisor B.
At the same time, the result of pressing the “Yes” switch 13 is displayed in the corresponding worker column as “◯” (for example, attendance column for name 1). When the “update” key 31 is pressed after a certain period of time has elapsed, for example, if “name 6” is absent, the “yes” switch 13 will not be pressed forever, so “name 6”. The entire column is displayed in different colors, and the total number of attendees is displayed in the “total” column 39. In this way, the color-coded display and the display of the total number of people make the result clear and easy to understand.

Next, the on-site supervisor B presses the “forward” key 33 or “safety belt” in the “confirmation column” 37 to prepare the safety belt and check whether there is an abnormality. Each worker M prepares a safety belt and checks whether there is an abnormality. If there is no problem, the operator presses the “Yes” switch 13, and the signal is communicated to the wireless communication device 2 via the wireless communication. Is displayed in the “Safety zone” column. When the field supervisor B presses the “Update” key 31 after a certain period of time, ○ (or ×) is entered in all columns except absent persons in the “safety zone” column, and the total number of ○ is the “total” column. 39.
If neither the “Yes” switch 13 nor the “No” switch 14 is pressed after a certain period of time has elapsed, “X” is automatically displayed.

Next, the presence / absence of “qualification 1” and confirmation of the carrying of the certificate are performed. Each worker M checks whether or not “qualification 1” exists and carries the credential. If there is no problem, the switch 13 of “Yes” is displayed. If there is no “qualification 1” or the credential is not carried, “ When the “No” switch 14 is pressed, these signals are communicated to the wireless communication device 2 via radio, and the result is displayed in the column of the corresponding worker by ○ and ×. On the other hand, when the on-site supervisor B presses the “update” key 31 after a certain period of time, ○ and × are entered in all columns except absent persons in the “qualification 1” column, and the total number of ○ is the “total” column. 39.
If neither the “Yes” switch 13 nor the “No” switch 14 is pressed after a certain period of time has elapsed, “X” is automatically displayed in the corresponding person column. As a result, the on-site supervisor B can clearly recognize the names having “qualification 1” and the total number thereof, for example, the number of “qualification 1” necessary for the work contents of the day can be easily confirmed. There is.
If it is clear whether the name is qualified or not, color it in advance in the “Qualification 1” column when registering the name, and carry the certificate by comparing with ○ on the day. It has an effect that it is possible to immediately and easily know the trouble such as not being.
Further, “qualification 2” and the like are performed in the same manner, and the operation and effect are the same.

Next, the presence / absence of abnormality of “tool 1” and confirmation of carrying are performed. Each worker M confirms whether or not the “tool 1” is abnormal and carries it, and if there is no abnormality, presses the “Yes” switch 13. When the “tool 1” is not carried, when the “no” switch 14 is pressed, those signals are communicated to the wireless communication device 2 via wireless, and the result is displayed in the corresponding column of each worker with O, × Is displayed.
On the other hand, when the on-site supervisor B presses the “update” key 31 after a certain period of time, all columns except absent persons in the “tool 1” column are filled with ○, ×, and the total number of ○ is the “total” column. 39. That is, when neither the “Yes” switch 13 nor the “No” switch 14 is pressed after a certain period of time, the X display is automatically performed. As a result, the on-site supervisor B can clearly recognize the names having “Tool 1” and the total number thereof, for example, the number of “Tool 1” necessary for the work contents of the day can be easily confirmed. There is.
In addition, when “Tool 1” is used in common, such as a stepladder, it is recommended that the person in charge of the “Tool 1” make a request in advance to press “Yes” as a representative.
The “tool 2” and the like are similarly performed for the operation, and the operation and effect are the same.

The “update” key 31 has a function of displaying “O” for “Yes” pressed until that time, “X” for “No” or not pressed, and displaying the total number of ○. . The “return” key 32 has a function of returning to the key operation immediately before that.
Further, the “forward” key 33 has a function of proceeding to the right one column. If the “advance” key 32 is pressed without pressing the “update” key 31, the function of “advance” is automatically executed after the “update” function is performed. It is efficient because it saves the work of the field supervisor.
The “correction” key 34 is a key necessary for correction. After the “correction” key 34 is pressed, the fields requiring correction, such as “attendance”, “safety belt”, and the like are pressed. Alternatively, after the “correction” key 34 is pressed, when the name of the operator who needs correction is pressed, the color of the entire data of the name is changed, and correction is possible. Or, if the correction location is clear, by pressing the column of the operator, ○ can be corrected to ×, and if it is ×, it can be corrected to O. This makes it possible to easily correct data.

In the communication between the worker M carrying the tag 1 and the field supervisor B as the manager having the wireless communication device 2, for example, the operator M switches “Yes” to the question of the field supervisor B. 13 (or “No” switch 14) is pressed, the ID (personal information) number originally stored in the tag is combined with the pressed signal, and the signal is wirelessly transmitted from the antenna 11 by the RFID transmitter. send.
The signal is received by the antenna 21 of the wireless communication apparatus 2 and transmitted to the RFID receiver 22 as shown in FIG. Next, the ID (personal information) authentication registered beforehand is performed by collating with the built-in authentication database 24. As a result, the name, the presence or absence of qualification, etc., for the ID number registered in advance are confirmed, and the control circuit 25 transfers the data combining the ID number and the pressing signal to the control device 3 via the data transfer 2. At the same time, in order to notify the holder of the tag 1 that the pressing signal has been received, the indicator lighting signal 27 is generated together with the ID number, and is transmitted from the antenna 21 to the tag 1 having the ID number by the RFID transmitter 28. To do. The signal is received by the antenna 11 of the tag 1 and transmitted to the RFID receiver 17, and the display lighting circuit 18 turns on the display 12 for a predetermined time, for example, for 1 second. As a result, the tag 1 holder can confirm that the signal that has pressed the “Yes” switch 13 (or “No” switch 14) is transmitted to the control device 3 of the field supervisor B.

Next, a series of these operations will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.
In the control device 3, the power is turned on and start-up is started. First, the field supervisor B performs attendance confirmation a, and the attending worker depresses the “Yes” switch 13 of each tag 1. Site supervisor B confirms the responses of all attendees. Next, “safety zone” confirmation c is performed. Each worker confirms the answers of all attendees by pressing the “Yes” switch 13 or the “No” switch 14 of each tag 1, and then confirms “Qualification 1” in the same manner. Each worker confirms the answers of all attendees by pressing the “Yes” switch 13 or the “No” switch 14 of each tag 1, and then confirms “qualification 2”. Each worker confirms the answers of all attendees by pressing the “Yes” switch 13 or the “No” switch 14 of each tag 1, and then performs confirmation “i” for “Tool 1”.
The operator confirms the answers of all the attendees by pressing the “Yes” switch 13 or the “No” switch 14 of each tag 1, and then confirms “Tool 2”. Similarly, the operator confirms the answers of all the attendees by pressing the “Yes” switch 13 or the “No” switch 14 of each tag 1 and stops a series of confirmation operations.

Therefore, according to the safety confirmation system of the present invention configured as described above, necessary information is exchanged using the tag 1 possessed by each worker, the wireless communication device 2 and the control device 3 managed by the site supervisor or the like. As a result, it is possible to obtain information for a plurality of workers M at the morning meeting in a short time and with high reliability. In other words, starting with confirmation of attendance, each task includes confirmation of the presence of safety belts, confirmation of the presence of qualifications, confirmation of the number of qualified personnel, confirmation of the presence of road tools, confirmation of the number of necessary road tools, etc. Information can be easily acquired and totaling can be easily performed only by a key operation (pressing) that the person makes an affirmative (yes) or negative (no) to the question of the field supervisor.
Since each tag 1 has a display function, it is possible to check immediately even if the key operation signal by each worker M does not reach the on-site supervisory radio communication device, thus preventing operational mistakes. can do.

  In this way, the supervisor B uses the control device 3 connected to the wireless communication device 2 to identify each worker M carrying the tag 1 with the qualification including grasping the attendance status and possessing the certificate. It is possible to easily record presence / absence, possession of tools, etc. and automatically record them. As a result, the safety confirmation work before work is very simple and has the effect of preventing mistakes.

  Further, since the name, age, qualification information, etc. are stored in advance in the tag 1 held by each worker as the ID information of the worker M, a tag containing information such as the name for the worker M on the day in advance. By handing over 1, the safety confirmation operation can be carried out smoothly.

  In addition, since the wireless communication device 2 stores the name, age, qualification information, etc. as the worker ID information, the age, qualification information can be obtained by checking the personal information from the tag 1 carried by each worker. This has the effect of saving the trouble of inputting such information.

  As described above, the safety confirmation system of the present invention has been described based on the embodiments. However, the present invention has the configuration described in the above embodiments, that is, attendance confirmation, safety belt presence / absence confirmation, qualification presence / absence, tool presence / absence confirmation.
